The FED is neither Federal or a Reserve system. Anything but.. . . It is a PRIVATE non-government corporation.. . . Look in the White Pages for the FED.. . . It is not in the Blue (goverment) section.

It`s just an abbreviation of federal. If your interested in the Fed try this. " Secrets of the Temple : How the Federal Reserve Runs the Country " by William Greider (1987), former assistant managing editor of the Washington Post. Enlightening and frightening all at once.
